Shibui cover

Shibui offers a fresh, culturally rich perspective on aging in a market saturated with crass anti-aging messaging. Using beautiful watercolours, personal stories, and guided activities, Japanese American author Sanae Ishida helps readers discover and celebrate the gifts of maturity.

Shibui is a beautifully understated celebration of aging with intention, grace, and meaning. Sanae Ishida’s gentle reflections and illustrations invite readers to rediscover the quiet joys of growing older.”
